Medical malpractice

*Johns Hopkins University Study, National Center for Health Statistics, BMJ

If you’ve been harmed by a medical provider, your life has been dramatically changed. Not only are you facing health issues that you never should have endured, but your trust in the entire system has likely collapsed.

And yet, securing your legal rights is a big, complicated challenge. Medical and hospital malpractice law is extremely complex due to laws that protect hospitals and healthcare providers. Moreover, when you take on the medical establishment, you’re going to come under fire from large, powerful and well-funded corporations and insurance companies; you need someone on your side who can correct that imbalance. You especially need someone with experience – this is not a battle for rookies.

We evaluate the full economic impact of the malpractice that you have endured, including your physical injuries, future medical and rehabilitation needs and your loss of income. Only then do we place a value on what you are owed.
